The story posted on the StoryWalk® trail at Pine Hill Park changes regularly, and a special story event accompanies each one on the second Sunday of select months.
The book for November is “Bear Says Thanks” by Karma Wilson and Jane Chapman.
Kids will join a guided walk along the story trail as they read the book, then make a special craft project to take home.
This book celebrates the season for giving thanks. What better way for Bear to say thanks than over a nice, big dinner? Bear decides to throw a feast! One by one, Bear’s friends show up with platters of delicious food to share. There’s just one problem: Bear’s cupboards are bare! What is he to do?
“This beautifully illustrated book is a heartwarming celebration of family and friendship, and perfect for the season of thanksgiving,” said Pam Rowland, Buttonwood’s educational site coordinator.
The event is FREE! Pre-registration is preferred, but not required.

All families are welcome, but activities are geared for preschool and elementary age kids.
Stay tuned for future StoryWalk® Sundays!
